Abstract: A method for fabricating a central caisson of an aircraft wing including a frame formed from U-section crossmembers. Formation of at least one crossmember includes forming a stack comprising at least one layer of resin film applied to a layer of dry fibers, pressing this stack to confer on it a U-section form and such as to compress the layers thereof, and pre-polymerization and/or polymerization of the resin of the stack. The manipulated fiber layers are layers of dry fibers, such that manipulation thereof by an automated machine may be effected for a reasonable cost and at a high throughput. Deposition of resin films carried by removable leaves, i.e., of which one of the faces is not adhesive, likewise facilitates manipulation by an automated installation.

Abstract: A method is disclosed for manufacturing connecting members for connecting an aircraft wing to a center wing box, using preforms. The method involves a step of manufacturing at least one preform made of composite material forming the connecting member, and a step of assembling the preform or preforms by heat treatment to form the connecting member. The manufacturing method makes it possible, simply and quickly, to manufacture a connecting member that contributes to the connection between a center wing box of an aircraft and a wing of the aircraft.
